Agave Cantina & Grill promises to be a destination as well as a restaurant for the busy families in the area. Live entertainment is featured on the spacious deck in the evening as well as serving lunch and dinner. With so much thought having gone into developing the dining area and atmosphere, Agave Cantina is the quintessential spot for relaxing and delightful unregimented fun, even before the food arrives. Agave Cantina is a fusion of culinary traditions that now seems like a natural but was a bold departure when Balbeisi Restaurant Group introduced the concept over a decade ago to the dining public. The eclectic menu melds the rich flavors of traditional Mexican food with the native Cajun seasoning and amazing seafood.
Based on 28 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.2 stars. Price $$

My wife and I had the BBQ pulled pork quesadillas. They are so very good. This Agave is very consistent with their food. We love to eat here.

Loved the brisket tamales. My spouse had the beef fajitas he loved it. Would highly recommend this restaurant. Very friendly staff. They know their foods. Service was quick. Go try them . You won’t be sorry.

I ordered the shrimp fajitas and asked for the onions and bell peppers to be really soft.. They were hard as can be. Then asked for Tomatoes to be added to the plate that was not there….. I ordered a side of Refried beans. That actually looked and tasted like puree beans The shrimp tasted like they just through it in the pan for a few minutes and did not taste like anything. Over all experience was not good at all.. Very pricey for not getting what you ask for in your meal. Was not good at all and will not be returning ever.

Gave it a 1 because the entree was good but everything else was bad. First , wanting to tell us that the kitchen closes at 9:30 when you stay open till 10. What restaurant that just opens is trying to tell customers that? No greeting, just heads up guys, we close the kitchen at 9:30, so now I have a time limit? Rushing us and making us uncomfortable. The chip bowl was just crumbs. This agave won’t last long if this is how they want to operate. The manager makes people feel rushed… all on a Saturday night to top

One of my favorite foods is Chile relleno. Their relleno was wrapped in chicken which is totally unnecessary except to charge more for it. The Chile was barely cooked and chicken dry and tough. Margaritas were very good! Our waiter was excellent. Manager was very nice and accomodating.

Enchilada dinner had absolutely no taste. No sauce or cheese inside tortilla with the seafood,was dry with no flavor. 2nd worse seafood enchilada dinner I have ever had.

Great service and great location. I always like the atmosphere at the Agave’s around town but their Margaritas seem like they skimp on the alcohol and they charge a ridiculous amount for their drinks.
